bathroom in its Spring homes and garden issue, published free with tomorrow's edition of The Royal Gazette .

Interior designer Sue Kemp of Creative Interiors worked with RG to demonstrate how to create five very different looks not by spending a fortune on remodelling but by carefully selecting accessories from the Island's stores.

The March issue also includes the first part of a two-part series by American writer Ross David Pollack on the 1941 Anglo-American bases-for-destroyers deal that changed the face of Bermuda. As Bermuda reclaims the former US Bases and sets about planning industrial parks, golf courses and marinas, it's easy to forget that when they were built they were critical to the Allied war effort in the Second World War.

The article takes a fascinating behind-the-scenes look at how the deal was brokered, and in particular the little-known role of former US solicitor general Charles Fahy.
